Initiative overview

The AI applications in mobility and logistics initiative, led by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport (BMDV), focuses on accelerating AI adoption in transportation and logistics. It supports the development of advanced AI-based systems for analysis, forecasting, and decision-making to make mobility safer, more efficient, and environmentally sustainable.

Key objectives include:

  • Enhancing safety in transportation through AI-supported monitoring and predictive systems
  • Improving efficiency and resource use in logistics operations
  • Increasing convenience for users of transport systems
  • Promoting transferable concepts that can be applied across different mobility and logistics contexts

The initiative encourages collaboration between public authorities, research institutions, and private sector partners to ensure that AI solutions are practical, scalable, and aligned with real-world operational needs. Funding and technical support enable projects to develop innovative AI applications that can be implemented across the mobility and logistics sector.

Future outlook:

  • Broader deployment of AI technologies across transport networks and logistics chains
  • Integration of AI into smart mobility solutions and automated transport systems
  • Strengthened coordination between research, industry, and policy to foster innovation and sustainability in mobility
